Demarest, Chris L. Firefighters A to Z. New York: Margaret K. McElderry Books, 2000.
I am partial to firefighters since my son used to be a volunteer firefighter and one of his best friends is a paid firefighter. I use this book Firefighters A to Z during my shelf order unit for the littles. I think it is important for them to hear a variety of alphabet books. In this one, Demarest has some part of the firefighter gear or tasks they perform for each letter of the alphabet. The illustrations complement the text. Our kinder teacher also uses this book as part of her community helpers unit.
Firefighters A To Z is available from Amazon.
